| Video Discription | Former health secretary Matt Hancock has accused Nicola Sturgeon of communicating with the public “in a way that was unhelpful and confusing” during the Covid-19 pandemic. However, he also told the UK Covid-19 Inquiry he had a “constructive relationship” with his counterparts in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and that their weekly briefings felt like “therapy sessions”. The inquiry was on Friday shown WhatsApp messages sent by Mr Hancock in July 2020. They concerned measures imposed by the UK Government which ordered people returning from Spain to isolate for 14 days afterwards to help slow the spread of the virus. Prior to the announcement, Mr Hancock was told Number 10 wanted to communicate the matter “asap”, and the former health secretary replied: “Me too. It will leak anyway – and the Scots will try to get their announcement out first.” He was asked by Claire Mitchell, representing Scottish Covid Bereaved at the inquiry: “What is the issue with the first minister communicating that to the people of Scotland first?” Mr Hancock said: “There were a number of moments when the first minister of Scotland would communicate in a way that was unhelpful and confusing to the public. “Sometimes, (she) would leave a meeting and begin communication of a decision, for instance, sooner than agreed.” Ms Sturgeon was first minister of Scotland and SNP leader from 2014 until earlier this year. Mr Hancock added: “We found it much more difficult when decisions went up to first minister level, particularly with Nicola Sturgeon. “Because we would find that sometimes some kind of spin was put on what was essentially substantively the same decision. So it was a frustration, I’ve got to be honest about that.” READ MORE: https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/news/11583744/andy-burnham-nicola-sturgeon-covid-travel-ban/ Become a Scottish Sun Subscriber and hit the bell to be the first to know Read The Sun: http://www.theScottishsun.co.uk Like The Sun on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thescottishsun/ Follow The Sun on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ScottishSun #scotland #covidinquiry #snp |
